"If you will change this one thing about how you operate,
it will change your life: throw garbage in the garbage can."

That is what I said as I sorted and sifted more miniscule bits of tin foil,
broken plastic toys,
used-up glow sticks,
old band-aids,
ripped paper,
bent needles,
pencil sharpenings,
and other debris from the things he actually loves,
and the dirty clothes stuffed in containers.

"Do you see how much work it would have saved
to simply throw trash away once you knew it was trash?"
And it strikes me: this is a good plan for my life.

About Me

I am a Christian. My mother was so influential in my own faith that it affects how I bring my own children up today. I want to do it well, because they are the most important thing I will leave behind me.
